If anaconda is already installed on my Mac (Mojave, 10.14.4 with Xcode 10.2), there is a problem compiling r-3.5.2.p0. I tried reinstalling anaconda and recompiling but failed with the same error. The good news is that after uninstalling anaconda, compiling sage-8.8.beta2 succeeded.
The crux of the matter seems to be that if anaconda is installed, then I get a message saying that although libcurl is version 7.64.0, it is still somehow not >= 7.22.0: [r-3.5.2.p0] checking for curl-config... /anaconda2/bin/curl-config > [r-3.5.2.p0] checking libcurl version ... 7.64.0 > [r-3.5.2.p0] checking curl/curl.h usability... yes > [r-3.5.2.p0] checking curl/curl.h presence... yes > [r-3.5.2.p0] checking for curl/curl.h... yes > [r-3.5.2.p0] checking if libcurl is version 7 and >= 7.22.0... no > [r-3.5.2.p0] configure: error: libcurl >= 7.22.0 library and headers are > required > [r-3.5.2.p0] Error configuring R. > [r-3.5.2.p0] > [r-3.5.2.p0] real 1m31.670s > [r-3.5.2.p0] user 0m49.088s > [r-3.5.2.p0] sys 0m38.236s > [r-3.5.2.p0] > ************************************************************************ > [r-3.5.2.p0] Error installing package r-3.5.2.p0 > [r-3.5.2.p0] > ************************************************************************ After uninstalling anaconda, curl-config comes from /usr/bin and everything works fine. This only became a problem with sage-8.8.beta1 and sage-8.8.beta2. I had earlier compiled sage-8.8.beta0 with no problems despite having anaconda installed. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "sage-release" group.
